Billy Graham's daughter issues 'Mayday' (Urges prayer and fasting since 'judgment is coming and..)
WND ^ | May 11, 2015 | Unattributed

Posted on 05/12/2015 11:02:00 AM PDT by Perseverando

The daughter of America’s most famous evangelist, Billy Graham, says God is “clearly warning that His judgment is coming on America, and it’s going to be ugly.”

So, Ann Graham Lotz is calling on Americans to participate in a “Mayday” time of prayer and intercession May 15-23.

She hopes to “delay or soften God’s judgment that is coming on America and our world” and urge the Holy Spirit to “compel the church to repent of sin and our nation to return to faith in the living God.”

Lotz’s warnings are startlingly specific.

In a recent message on her website, she said she believes Jesus “is soon to return to take all of His followers to Heaven with Him in what is referred to as The Rapture.”

“Institutions will collapse. Banks will close,” Lotz wrote. “The stock market will plunge. Planes will fall out of the sky. Cars will crash on the road. Government in America at every level will disintegrate. Families will be torn apart.

“In the unprecedented turmoil, our nation will be vulnerable for our enemies to seize the moment and attack us. There will be mass chaos, confusion, fear, grief, despair, anger, threats, danger … judgment.”

The Family Research Council is among the Christian groups promoting the prayer campaign. FRC Chaplain Pierre Bynum wrote, “Please take Anne’s call to heart.”

Lotz is not alone in expecting divine judgment against the United States in years or even months to come.

Joel Richardson, author of “When a Jew Rules the World: What the Bible Really Says About Israel in the Plan of God,” agrees it is time for Americans to repent.

For all praying Freepers, this is from the Family Research Council article mentioned in the article:

MAYDAY! MAYDAY! is an international distress call that signals a life-threatening emergency. And it's the call to cry out that I am issuing May 15-May 23. These are the nine days between the Day of the Ascension of Jesus and the Day of Pentecost that have Biblically and traditionally been days of prayer and fasting for an outpouring of God's Spirit.

The purpose of MAYDAY! MAYDAY! is ...

To claim God our Father's promise of an outpouring of His Spirit in these days following extraordinary signs in the sky ...I will pour out my Spirit in those days ...The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. Joel 2:29, 31 To implore God the Holy Spirit to compel the church to repent of sin and our nation to return to faith in the living God, that times of refreshing may come... Acts 3:19 To entreat God our Savior for an abundant harvest of souls for His Kingdom in the remaining days. Do you not say, 'Four months more and then the harvest'? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. John 4:35 To delay or soften God's judgment that is coming on America and on our world. Who knows? He may turn and have pity and leave behind a blessing. Joel 2:13-14

I'm asking you to please partner with me, and invite everyone on your email address list, or who follows you on facebook or twitter, to join us. I will be posting a blog this Thursday, April 30, at http://www.annegrahamlotz.org/mayday/ that will include specific information on how to participate. Please feel free to forward this letter to your constituents or use it in any way that would be helpful.

I will provide a prayer I have written for each of the 9 days to help unite us in one spirit and one voice as we cry out to God. Those who receive the eBlast are invited to sign up for the daily email prayers. Please be assured there is no other agenda to this initiative. This is not about promoting anything or anyone. This is all about calling God's people together to pray, before it's too late, and judgment falls on our nation.[1] Please let me hear back from you as soon as possible. Time is short.

Urgently, Anne

Back in the 70’s my grandfather was convinced God was coming and there was no need to fix the leaking roof.

Well, after waiting until the 80’s he finally fixed the roof :)

[Yes – the judgment of God is already falling upon America. But, I agree with Anne Graham Lotz and her biblically bold proclamation, ‘The worst is yet to come and it’s going to be ugly.’”

Gallups says prayer and moral renewal are the only solutions Americans can pursue to cure the deep rot that lies within its culture.]

Half of America is just as faithful as ever...perhaps even more.

The other half appears to have gone "Sodom and Gomorrah."

I think the good half isn't afraid of God (other than the normal fear of God) nor do they have any reason to be.

Since the “evangelist” is so enamored with Hillary Clinton, why doesn’t he just have her and her disgusting husband pray for him.

I lost all respect for Graham when he said that Hitlery would make a good president, totally ignoring her horrible, sinful life. His pandering to the devil on earth absolutely disgusted me.

actually, it would be early 1930s Germany. Obama is a leftist with a globalist (as opposed to nationalist) bent. The Social Democrats controlled Germany throughout the Weimar years, and when a scapegoat was needed the globalists and the “others” became the targets of the nationalists— who were still socialists, mind you, but they preferred a homebrewed version...more control over their lives that way.

so when Americans get tired of watching those with access to credit at very low rates suck up their prime real estate and stock market, and when they’ve had enough of the borders not being enforced— which plays out at the local level in terms of crime rates, hospital and public schools quality, when they are tired of losing purchasing power thru currency depreciation (being falsely categorized as “inflation” when there is no uptick in unit demand to match the rise in prices), THEN it will be like Germany in 1933.

Don’t get me wrong...it will still suck mightily, but people will embrace the suck because it is a nationalist suck as opposed to a globalist suck. control the suck— that will be the rallying cry.

And at that point, the globalist left will be hit in the face with an epistemological frying pan: the left needs the right to pay for their doofy programs...the right doesn’t need the left for...anything...in fact, the right’s standard of living would increase dramatically if...the left wasn’t around. And then the party starts. Unless people in DC seek help for their seemingly terminal case of Cranial-Rectal Inversion.

"America has been richly blessed, yet America has turned away from our faith, and become lukewarm, and as the Bible says in Thy Word "I will spit you out of my mouth." God forgive us, we have accepted day by day, the current political correctness, the suppression of Christians in every way, seemingly accepting every turning the government puts before us. ABORTION on demand, Same sex marriage, no Christianity in our education systems. The foundation of our most respected schools Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, Stanford, etc., were founded on Christian principles.

How has America accepted the on going destruction of our Faith, bit by bit, and look where we are now? God help us. Forgive our weak response to the attacks on the WORD of God. We come seeking forgiveness, for our blatant sins. We KNOW not what we are doing. A little change here, and there we ignored or failed to see for what it is. We cry out for mercy, faith, goodness, in repentance. Hear our prayer LORD, open our hearts to Thy greatness, truth, WORD, and forgive us our turning, and silence. Humbly we pray for our nation, for all seeking to know thee and serve Thy Word. Gorgive us Father. We are without excuse, help us now, WE PRAY.

PRAISE THE LORD! in Jesus name amen.

I remember seeing Mr. Graham on television c. 1998 saying that B. Clinton just “couldn’t he’p himself when he’s around the ladies” (may not be exact words).

“In a recent message on her website, she said she believes Jesus “is soon to return to take all of His followers to Heaven with Him in what is referred to as The Rapture.” “

Well, she believes in the unbiblical pre-trib rapture doctrine, so it’s safe to say she doesn’t have any real spiritual insight on these matters.

Just as it was in the days of Noah...You can say that again.

Things must have really been rotten back in Noah's day to cause GOD to destroy the earth by the flood. Here in the Obama age, it's hard to tell if things are any better. So, having chosen wisely, I'll wait for the second coming of Christ. But in the meantime, I'm going to get me some fireproof pants in case GOD decides to destroy the earth by fire. Nobody knows the exact date and time when our groom is coming for his bride, but if you stop, look, and listen, you might feel some heat and smell some smoke (or is that sulfur). Ironic isn't it, the liberals are predicting Global Warming. They might be right in this case.

Sorry, Ace. You're wrong. I got the right one.

http://jesus.safeguardyoursoul.com/html/billy_graham.html

'Billy Graham took the oportunity to announce that he was a lifelong Democrat and then gave a veiled endorsement to Hillary Clinton in the audience. It was a sad moment in the long ministry of Dr. Billy Graham. The question that should haunt all of us who say we follow Christ is this: How could a man who has spent his life traveling the globe to bring the message of Jesus stoop so low? This was Bill Clinton, the same President who vetoed bills five times that would have banned the butchery of partial birth abortion. Does Billy Graham even grasp the magnitude of the slaughter that has taken place in this land for the last 32 years, a slaughter justified and defended by Bill Clinton and his wife and their Democratic Party? This was Bill Clinton, the man whose lust converted the Oval Office into a cheap brothel and who desecrated the Office of the President by his lies and his treachery? Yet this is the man Dr. Graham chose to bring to the platform to close out his storied ministry career."
